"Angel" is a power ballad by American rock band Aerosmith. It was written by lead singer Steven Tyler and professional songwriting collaborator Desmond Child.
It was released in 1988 as the third single from the band's successful 1987 album Permanent Vacation. It quickly climbed to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100,[1] which at the time was their highest charting single ever. The song currently ranks second behind the 1998 smash "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing", which was Aerosmith's first single (and as of 2018, only single) to top the Hot 100.[1]
